Carrier Air Group Commanders - The Men and Their
Machines

Lawson, Robert

Schiffer Military Books

0764310356

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 208pp -
The study of the U.S. Navy's air group and air wing commanders is a study of carrier aviation
itself. This detailed volume presents a history of the establishment of the carrier air group
commander billet and the attendant formal air groups. The book is divided into four sections:
Section One "A Historical Overview," presents an overview of naval aviation history
from 1898 to 1922, when the U.S. Navy commissioned its first aircraft carrier USS Langley
(CV-1), with its wood-and-fabric biplanes. The pages next describe carrier aviation from Langley
to the 90,000-ton supercarriers of today with their supersonic jets. This section also contains air
group organization charts showing their development over the years. Section Two
"Evolving the System," discusses the genesis and evolution of the air group/wing
commander billet, as well as the development of the organizations they commanded. It contains
biographical sketches of the first CAGs and their wing commander predecessors. Section Three
"The Men," profiles more than forty of the Navy's more notable CAGs by use of their
personal reminiscences and anecdotes. Their stories give the reader a feel for the responsibilities,
joys and sorrows that accompany the assumption of the title: CAG. Additionally, the profiles
give an insider's view of the U.S. Navy's combat operation tactics from World War II to Desert
Storm. The book's final section "The Machines," contains a chronological selection
of photographs and some profile drawings of the aircraft flown by wing commanders from 1931
to the present. Heavy emphasis has been given to provide as many high-quality color
photographs as were possible to locate. This section should have great appeal to both historian
and enthusiast in its coverage as it not only graphically presents the aircraft flown, but also
covers the evolution of carrier aviation itself. An appendix listing every known CAG and dates of
his command concludes the book. lation of this data to exist. Carrier Air Group Commanders:
The Men and Their Machines is an important historical document that will serve both as a
reference work and enjoyable reading for many years - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail

Force Drawdown - A USAF Photo History 1988-1995

Francillon, Rene

Schiffer Military Books

0887407773

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 144pp -
The end of the Cold War created a golden opportunity for reducing the defense burden and
providing taxpayers with a "Peace Dividend." For the United States Air Force, this
resulted over the past six years in drastic reductions: 23% in aircraft inventory, 30% in personnel,
and 32% in the number of bases and other major installations. Well-known and long-serving
aircraft, such as the A-7D/K, the B-52G, the F-4C/D/E, the F-111A/D, the FB-111A and the
SR-71, have been withdrawn from active and reserve components, and some states, such as
California, have lost nearly half of their Air Force bases. Illustrated with over 410 color photos,
this new book provides a rich pictorial record of aircraft (including old and new markings) and
units which no longer exist, and offers a visual chronicle of organizational changes between

French Aeroplanes Before the Great War

Opdycke, Leonard E.

Schiffer Military Books

0764307525

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 288pp -
Over 800 Photos - French Aeroplanes Before the Great War is a catalog of the aeroplanes of the
nearly 700 French builders who worked before the onset of World War I. Most of these
aeroplanes flew - some did not - some were never even finished - but all of them reflect the
extraordinary vitality and sense of optimism that powered the aeronautical world before the
future of the aeroplane began to become clearer in wartime. If the Wrights had not flown in 1903,
one of the early French builders would very quickly have won the laurels for the first flight.
Some of the machines appear in these pages probably for the first time in print; others are rarely
seen. This collection serves as a kind of super Exposition Internationale de Locomotion Arienne;
readers are invited to enter the Grand Palais, as they might have in 1908 or 1909, to enjoy these
marvelous aircraft - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only!

through its shining moment during Operational Desert Storm. Bill Holder and Mike Wallace are

Lockheed Martin C-5 Galaxy - Warbird Tech Vol. 36

Norton, Bill

Specialty Press

1580070612

BRAND NEW Softcover - 104pp - The C-5 Galaxy was
designed in the mid-1960s to transport vast quantities of material to any part of the globe. The
result was the largest aircraft in the world. However, it became a symbol for government excess
and production was limited to just 81 machines. Initial operations struggled with frequent
breakdowns and, in an extraordinary move, the gravely under-designed wing was replaced. Even
more remarkable was the decision to reopen production after a decade for another 50 machines.
Because of its incredible capacity and range, the C-5 Galaxy remains indispensable. The decision
has been made to refit the aircraft for decades of more operation. This is the remarkable story of
the Galaxy's controversial birth, climb to eminence, and quarter century of service. This detailed
story is told with hundreds of supporting illustrations, objectively exploring controversial
subjects based on thorough research. Never before have the structural and subsystem problems
experienced by the C-5 during its early years been explored so succinctly in a manner suitable for
popular publication. This was possible because of the author's background as an aeronautical
engineer involved in aircraft development and flight test. The book also lays out the jet's history
and details of the currently-underway modernization program. Unique missions such as airdrop
are shown in rare photographs and drawings, with hundreds of other illustrations appealing to
modelers and historians

BRAND NEW Oversized Softcover - 208pp - The Republic
Aviation Corporation F-84 series, the Thunderjet, Thunderstreak, and Thunderflash was the
United States Air Forces' first Post World War II jet fighter. As a somewhat sad result of this, it
has been ignored by most aviation historians and aficionados. It was not the Air Forces' first
operational jet fighter, as that honor went to the Lockheed F-80 which was created during World
War II. And it did not receive the glory of the North American Aviation F-86, which followed it
in sequence and was more photogenic, faster, and more involved in the glory of aerial combat.
Nevertheless, the F-84 performed its unheralded role in a true yeoman fashion. It, and its pilots
and groundcrews, fought the air-to-mud role as a fighter bomber in Korea. It served as an
interceptor, and in photo reconnaissance. It was the first jet fighter to be operationally capable of
air refueling, and it was the first to be able to deliver a nuclear weapon. 4300 of the straight-wing
F-84s were built, along with 2713 of the swept-wing F-84Fs, and 715 of the reconnaissance
RF-84Fs. Almost 8000 unrecognized fighters, of which half of those produced served as a
deterrent to enemy forces during the Cold War while being flown by friendly foreign countries -

Russian Air Power : Current Organisation and Aircraft of All
Russian Air Forces

BRAND NEW Oversized Softcover - 160pp - Originally
designed in 1952 as an anti-submarine warfare platform for the U.S. Navy, almost two-thousand
Sikorsky H-34s have served on every continent with the armed forces of twenty-five countries -
from combat in Algeria, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and throughout southeast Asia, to
saving flood victims, recovering astronauts, fighting fires, and carrying presidents, military H-34s
have met every challenge handed them. With continuing post-military service, the number of
countries which the H-34 has called home has swelled to nearly fifty. Revitalized with turbine
engines, it has yet to fade from sight. Whether lifting construction material or supporting police
departments, the "DC-3 of helicopters" will still be flying on its fiftieth anniversary.
The most detailed account of the H-34 to appear, Lennart Lundh's Sikorsky H-34 reflects over a
decade of research. It takes the reader through the H-34 from nose to tail, and across its service
from Argentina to Vietnam. Few of the photographs have been published before, and many are
drawn from private collections. A special feature is the chapter of impressions and anecdotes
from fourteen H-34 crew members - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only!

Soviet Strategic Aviation in the Cold War

Gordon, Yefim

Hikoki Publications

9781902109084

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in Jacket - Born in the
1930s, the Soviet Air Force's long-range bomber arm (known initially as the ADD and later as
the DA) proved itself during World War II and continued to develop in the immediate post-war
years, when the former allies turned into Cold War opponents. When the strategic bomber Tu-4
was found to be too 'short-legged' to deliver strikes against the main potential adversary – the
USA, both Tupolev and Myasishchev OKBs began the task by creating turbine-engined strategic
bombers. By the Khrushchev era in the mid/late 1950's, the Soviet defense industry and aircraft
design bureaus set about adapting the bombers to take air-launched missiles for use against land
and sea targets. In 1962 the DA fielded its first supersonic aircraft – the Tu-22 Blinder twinjet,
which came in pure bomber and missile strike versions. The Brezhnev years saw a resurgence of
strategic aviation with the Tu-22M Backfire 'swing-wing' supersonic medium bomber entering
service in the mid-1970s followed in 1984 by the Tu-95MS Bear-H and Tu-160 Blackjack, which
were capable of carrying six and 12 air-launched cruise missiles, respectively

Target Rolling: Llanbedr Airfield 1941-2002

Mills, Wendy

Midland Publishing

9781857801361

BRAND NEW Oversized Softcover - Llanbedr airfield near
Harlech in North Wales was established in 1941. It was one of a number of RAF establishments
set up in the area at this time. Its wartime role involved providing air firing facilities for visiting
front line squadrons. After the end of the conflict RAF Llandbedr continued to specialise in aerial
target operations, and this unusual role continues to this day. The airfield has always held a
special interest for the aviation fraternity because of the aircraft types which have been seen there
over the years and their imaginative colour schemes. The brightly painted drones and control
aircraft, which have been based at Llanbedr included Meteors, Canberras, Hawks, Sea Vixens,
Jindiviks and other target types. More recently the AlphaJet has been operating from there. RAF
Llanbedr, on the coast of Cardigan Bay, is in an area which attracts many holidaymakers each
year. The viewing of Llanbedr's operations from vantage points around the airfield is an
additional attraction for many visitors. This book, written by a journalist, who has also been a
flying instructor and was for 12 years the first and only woman controller of unpiloted target
aircraft at the base, covers the whole history of the airfield, but places the emphasis firmly on the
target flying with which the airfield has been associated for such a long time

The Ford Tri-Motor 1926-1992

Larkins, William T.

Schiffer Military Books

0887404162

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 320pp - A
large number of people in the United States had their first airplane ride in a Ford Tri-Motor
during the 1920s and 1930s, a plane that remains to this day a fine example of engineering,
planning and production. It was the application of a modified assembly line production by the
world's largest automobile manufacturer to a continuously refined design, backed by extensive
advertising and publicity concerned with safety, at a time when such dependability and safety
was crucial, that put Ford ahead of all of its competitors. The all-metal construction, stressed so
much by the Ford advertising campaign of the late 1920s, proved its worth in later years. The life
span of the average airplane in the 1920s was relatively short and so it is not surprising to find
the Ford Company timidly stating in their 1929 advertising that "no Ford plane has yet
worn out in service." This new book by aviation historian William T. Larkins is the most
complete information available on the Ford Tri-Motro, and includes information on design,
contruciton, model designations, a cross-indexing of U.S. and foreign registrations, a cross-index
to military Ford Tri-Motors, accident summaries, Ford factory employees and Ford Tri-Motor

The History of German Aviation - The First Jet Aircraft

Wagner, Wolfgang

Schiffer Military Books

0764304887

BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover - 260pp - This book, the
first in a multi-volume history of German aviation, provides a comprehensive and detailed
analysis of of jet aircraft design and development in Germany. The solid description, unique
photo material, historical documents, numerous drawings and complete data tables - published
for the first time - make this book not only a gripping story but also an indispensable reference
work for anyone with an interest in the development of aviation. In August 1939 in Germany a
small propellerless aircraft took off on its maiden flight under conditions of utmost secrecy: the
world's first jet aircraft. Apart from Ernst Heinkel, Hans Joachim Pabst von Ohain (inventor of
the turbojet engine) and a small circle of their co-workers, no one suspected the profound effect
that the successful flight of the tiny He 178 would have on aviation. Spurred on by Heinkel's
success, very high speed aircraft were also put into the air by Messerschmitt, Arado and Junkers.
On the other hand the designers of jet engines initially encountered almost insuperable problems,
for in wartime high-quality raw materials such as nickel, cobalt and molybdenum were
unobtainable and substitute materials had to be used in their place. But the designers, who were
rushing ahead with their own projects, found a way around this with the help of experienced test
pilots: in 1940 the Heinkel 280, the first twin-engined jet aircraft, was flown without engines as a
towed glider; Messerschmitt installed an auxiliary piston engine in the nose of its twin-engined
Me 262; Arado equipped its twin-engined Ar 234 with jet engines intended for ground tests only.
The test pilots became accustomed to landing on just one working engine or none at all. In spite
of shortages of strategic materials and the use of replacements, jet engines reached the production
stage by the end of the war. But it was only possible to put small numbers of the very high speed
aircraft into service, too late to have any decisive effect on the war. The development work on
these first jet aircraft led to a tremendous technological leap forward; it was the beginning of
advanced technology in aircraft design - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only!

significant of Germany's aeronautical design engineers. This book examines Messerschmitt's life
as a designer, aircraft builder, and businessman; it begins with the Harth-Messerschmitt gliders
(1913-1923), winds its way through the sportplanes of the 1920s and 1930s, the M 18 and M 20
passenger airliners, the Bf 108 Taifun commuter plane, the Bf/Me 109, 110, 210, 410 military

Tomcat! - The Grumman F-14 Story

Gillcrist, Paul T.

Schiffer Military Books

0887406645

BRAND NEW Hardcover - 208pp - TOMCAT! The Gurmman
F-14 Story is an exciting oral history of the most versatile air supremacy fighter in the world . . .
much of it written from the vantage point of the airplane's cockpit! Told in an anecdotal format,
this new book is richly marbled with the salt air of fleet experience. Perhaps the F-14 program's
greatest success is its overwhelming acceptance by the youngsters in the fleet. Anecdotes about
the Tomcat legend abound . . . expecially in the chapters devoted to its employment by the fleet
in the oceans of the world. Of particular interest are the chapters dealing with the sale of Tomcats
to Iran and the subsequent integration of the airplane into Iran's armed forces. On-the-scene eye
witness accounts provide a unique perspective of this fascinating aspect of the Tomcat story.
TOMCAT! contains over 150 photographs, most in color and never bfore published, and most of
them taken by Tomcat aircrews with hand-held cameras. These provide a fascinating backdrop
for the oral history contained in the book. This is not a garden variety history about an airplane. It
is a sometimes heart-stopping stroy of how a controversial airplane finally made it into the hearts
and minds of the fleet . . . after stumbling at the starting gates of an outmoded defense acquisition
system. It is the story of the best air supremacy fighter in the world! Rear Admiral Paul Gillcrist,
USN (Retired), commanded a fleet fighter squadron on three carrier combat deployments to the
Tonkin Gulf during which he flew 167 combat missions over Vietnam. For these he was awarded
seventeen combat decorations. In his thirty-three year flying career as a fleet pilot and Navy test
pilot as well, he flew 71 different U.S. and foreign tactical airplanes including the U.S. Air
Force's F-104, F-105, F-106, F-15, F-16, YF-17 and F-20. He flew the Navy's F-4, F-5, F-8, F-11,
F-14 and F/A-18 as well as several key foreign tactical airplanes. During his carrier flying career,
which spanned an amazing twenty-seven years, he commanded a fighter squadron, a carrier air
wing and was the wing commander for all Pacific Fleet fighter squadrons. He flew from sixteen
carriers, and in his last flying assignment accumulated over four hundred flight hours in the
Tomcat culminating, at age 51, in becoming the first flag officer to land the Tomcat on an aircraft
carrier - the U.S.S. KITTYHAWK on 21 October 1980. The author of FEET WET, Reflections
of a Carrier Pilot, Admiral Gillcrist is eminently qualified to write the F-14 story! - Overseas

Vulture's Row - Thirty Years in Naval Aviation

Gillcrist, Paul T.

Schiffer Military Books

0764300474

BRAND NEW Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 256pp - Told in
anecdotal form, Vulture's Row tells a fascinating story about an important period covering nearly
one half of the entire history of U.S. naval aviation. "Vulture's Row" is an area
dubbed by naval flyers, on the island structure of an aircraft carrier where pilots who aren't flying
can overlook carrier launchings and recoveries on the deck below. This new book by acclaimed
author Paul Gillcrist is a series of true stories about the U.S. Navy carrier aviation from the
perspective of a Navy pilot who spent thirty-three years directly involved in that exciting
profession. The book begins with a series of vignettes in the period of the mid-1950s when the
U.S. Navy introduced swept wing, jet-powered fighters into the aircraft carrier navy, flying from
straight-deck carriers whose flight decks were made of teak wood. The thread of stories follows
the author's career in chronological sequence, in various venues throughout the Navy. There are
accounts from his first carrier deployment to the western Pacific, followed by events as a
weapons delivery instructor at the predecessor to TOPGUN in El Centro, California. Some of his
experiences as a Navy pilot are recorded in a section about Patuxent River, Maryland, the Navy's
test center. Additional episodes include an unforgettable wing-walking flight. flying Japanese
Zeros in the movie TORA!TORA!TORA! and the author's subsequent tour of duty in Pentagon
conducting proficiency flights from our nation's capital. There are also accounts of combat
missions over Vietnam and the author's experiences in both wing commander jobs, flying the F-4
Phantom II and the F-14 Tomcat. The last story is about his two flights, as a fifty-two year old
Admiral, in the controversial F-20 Tigershark. These vignettes combine humor, hair-raising
excitement and tragedy. Rear Admiral Paul T. Gillcrist, a U.S. Navy fighter pilot, served also as a
test pilot and weapons delivery instructor, and actively flew from sixteen aircraft carriers for over
twenty-seven years. The author writes with authority as a former fighter squadron commanding
officer who recorded 167 combat missions over Vietnam flying the F-8 Crusader. Subsequently,
he commanded a carrier air wing and finally served, the rank of Rear Admiral, as the wing
commander for all pacific Fleet fighter squadrons. His pilot's logbook includes over 6,000 hours,
in seventy-one different types of aircraft from 1952 to 1981. He retired in 1985 as Assistant
Deputy Chief of Naval Operations(air Warfare). He is also the author of TOMCAT!The
Grumman F-14 Story, and CRUSADER! Last of the Gunfighters - Overseas Shipping on this via

(Canada $13) - surface mail has been eliminated by the U.S. Postal Service, so books that cannot
be sent via Flat Rate Envelope will need to be sent via Airmail in a Box at extra cost - please feel
free to inquire for postage costs.

We will never charge you more for shipping without your permission!

Use PayPal to send your order - Please send an
email to confirm availability before sending funds! Remember to add shipping (and sales tax if
you live in North Carolina)
